Sephora Formula X: Cosmos

Sephora Formula X: Cosmos
Royal purple with shimmer

The formula of "Cosmos" is quite thick. I used two coats for full opacity and the drying time was good.

I applied a layer of purple and blue bar glitter over it. The glitter is PS's "Disco Queen".

Then I placed a flower sticker by the base of each nail and topped it all with topcoat.

This is the final result under a lamp.

I didn't actually realize that the glitter was bar glitter until I applied it :D

Here is "Cosmos" on its own. Two coats and no topcoat.

And here are the things I used today.

I think "Cosmos" is really pretty but I have to admit that it's a bit too dark for me. It's a shame though because the shimmer is really pretty.



Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Good
Finish: Shimmer
Overall impression: Thick formula, no probs with application. Pretty shimmer.
Buy again: No (Only because it's too dark for me)

Catrice: Even More Heavy Metalilac

Purple with a lighter shade of purple shimmer

Today I'm going to show you a really beautiful purple shimmer. I love everything about it: The formula, the colour and the finish. It's gorgeous.

Let me start by showing you the final result of my efforts today. Here they are:

Catrice: Even More Heavy Metalilac with PS Mermaid Magic: Shimmer

This is what I did:

First I applied two easy coats of Catrice's "Even More Heavy Metalilac". The formula is great and the drying time is good.

Then I added even more shimmer: PS Mermaid Magic's "Shimmer".

Then I stamped on it. The design is from the stamping plate "PY-X007" and I stamped with "Orchid" from El Corazón.

Lastly I applied a layer of holo micro glitter from Orly: "Shine On Crazy Diamond".
